and a little abstraction as well.

Sorry I forgot to mention.

I borrowed my Dads Canon T3i along with the stock lenses it came with. Not great glass I know but able to produce better pictures then I so more than aqueduct for the foreseeable future.

I have only recently started playing with a dSLR. My Dad chased pictures as a hobby for 7-10 years. Last year he had a stroke and is now frustrated by his new lack of understanding a camera. Its not just the camera that confuses him not. In order to preserve his picture collection I hijacked his laptop (another great source of confusion for him) and made a copy of all of his saved pictures. I spend days reviewing the thousands of pictures and in the process of selecting and compiling shots to set up on an easier to use tablet viewer, I was infected by the bug to shoot my own.

Shooting a dSLR is a bit of a challenge for me as I have limited use of my right hand and a frozen right elbow. Because of the elbow I can not hold a camera in my right hand to look through the viewfinder. (My elbow will not bend to allow me to touch my face) I started with a mono-pole and an electronic remote shutter release but quickly learned to shoot with the camera in my left hand and the shutter control in my right. I have to pre-think my shots to make speed and aperture adjustments before sighting a shot. Its slower but working.Being a bit of a bird and wildlife fanatic plus a very avid boater provides me with a lot of picture opportunities. Most of you already know what I am quickly learning. Finding a good shot and capturing it are two vastly differentiate things especially when shooting from a moving boat (boats always move) at living targets that move to survive.

So for the purpose of introduction Ill attach a couple shots from taken from the ground at slower moving subjects.
